What is an electrical breaker and how does it work?
An electrical breaker is a safety switch in your electrical panel that protects your Chicago home from electrical overloads. If too much current flows through a circuit, the breaker 'trips,' shutting off the power to that circuit. This prevents wires from overheating and causing fires. Resetting a tripped breaker is often a temporary fix; the underlying issue needs professional attention.
